“I had a lot of fun doing this movie. And to have the privilege of appearing with the beautiful and talented actors Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Sam Heughan in my very first feature film is a gift that I will cherish forever,” the singer-songwriter, 55, said in a press release.
She continued, “I think it’s a wonderful feel-good story, and I hope that people will like it, and like the new songs too.”

The film stars Chopra Jonas andOutlanderstar Heughan as Mira and Rob, who meet after Mira sends romantic texts to her late fiancé’s old phone number, “not realizing the number was reassigned to Rob Burns' new work phone,” according to an official synopsis.
In February,Chopra Jonas, 40, told PEOPLE she was excited to doLove Again— which she calls “our ode to Céline,” adding, “I think having new music from her is such a blessing in this movie.”
Meanwhile, Heughan, 42, told PEOPLE Dion is “very good” and he was “surprised about how funny she was” inthe film, in which she “plays an integral part"in Rob’s storyline.
“Her music, in a way, brings my character and Priyanka’s character together. But who better to do that than Céline Dion?” he said.
The new project comes after the “My Heart Will Go On” singer revealed in December that she wasdiagnosed with stiff-person syndrome, a rare and incurable neurological disease that can cause debilitating muscle spasms. Sharing the news in an Instagram clip, Dion said her condition would force her to postpone and cancel a series of concert dates.
